2017 北外考研MTI 翻译硕士：段落翻译中的长难句如何处理 汉语和英语都有长句，但在句子结构上差异很大。汉语的长句从内部结构来 看，可分为两种：一种长句是句子成分比较多，且有的成分内部比较复杂，这种 句子内容丰富，陈述细致；另一种长句是复句或多重复句，这种句子可以把事物 间的逻辑关系表达出来。英语的长句是以“主语+谓语”框架为基础，其扩展方 式有增加句子的修饰语、并列成分或并列句、利用短语或从句充当句子成分。 1．原序翻译 从前有个俊俏的年轻人，名叫王小，人人都喜欢他，可他总是闷闷不乐，因 为他有一个说话尖刻，唠叨不休的继母。 Once there lived a handsome young man named Wang Xiao who, though a favorite with everyone, was unhappy because he had a sharp-tongued, nagging step mother. 在街上，我遇见了一个小孩，他哭得伤心极了，我问他，他说他饿极了，两 天没吃东西了。 In the street I met a boy, who was crying as if his heart would break and said, when I spoke to him, that he had had no food for two days. 2．分译 2．1 按内容层次分译 秋天，无论在什么地方的秋天，总是好的；可是啊，北国的秋，却特别地来 得清，来得静，来得悲凉。 Autumn, wherever it is, always has something to recommend itself.

And one will be treated like a star, given free plane trips and invited to have voice recorded everywhere. It’s ridiculous! 1 2．3 原句出现总说或分述时要分译 不晓得季节与结婚有什么关系，但是从初冬到春天结婚的人数比其他季节多 了很多，也许就是所谓的结婚季节吧。 Don ’t know what relation exists between the season and marriage, but the number of marriage is much greater from early winter to spring than in other seasons. Maybe this is the season of marriage people usually call. 2．4 为强调语气而分译 灾难深重的中华民族，一百年来，其优秀人物奋斗牺牲，前赴后继，摸索救 国救民的真理，是可歌可泣的。 For a hundred years, the finest sons and daughters of the disaster-ridden Chinese nation fought and sacrificed their lives, one stepping into the breach as another fell, in quest of the truth that would save the country and the people. This moved us to songs and tears. 2．5 从关联词处分译 我在学堂里坐着，心里也闷，不如给他家放牛，倒快活些。 I feel sitting in school boring anyway. I ’d
